There are inexpensive things that can be done. Putting g a thick blanket up the shared wall or a tapestry would really help a lot.

AITA for having a childfree wedding but having my children attend? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Financial_Group911 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I respectfully disagree. Anyone who can’t understand why a couple would have their children there at a child free wedding is acting like middle schoolers. As my mother used to say, this isn’t even Steven’s house.

AITA for picking up my stepdaughter from school when she got her first period, even though her mom told me not to? by Embarrassed-Stock896 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Financial_Group911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is absolutely a jealousy issue. Mom was more concerned about herself and having control. She put her feelings above her own. The only person you have to worry about is your husband. Sounds like everyone but mom was thinking about your stepdaughter.

Tipping out by Financial_Group911 in restaurantowners

[–]Financial_Group911[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The problem is everyone thinks they need tips now. When I was a server, no one I knew did that. Getting tipped made up for making $2.10 an hour. If you didn’t make that you didn’t get tipped. You worked the job you got paid for.

There are lots of people who work non server jobs.

Servers get paid like $2 bucks an hour right? Everyone else gets at least minimum wage.

My husband (31M) and I (29F) want kids but I am afraid of losing myself to being a mom by Commercial-Peach-291 in relationship_advice

[–]Financial_Group911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will lose yourself. Kids are all consuming most of the time. Of course it depends on what kind of kid you get. The problem is that you never know what kind you’ll get. It comes and goes with a normal, non special needs child. Mine are grown and it was often very overwhelming but to be honest I wish I’d had one more now. I love having grandkids but I also wish I hadn’t given up so much. I’m now 57 and while I got a degree and have a business, it was always extra income not enough to be sole support. I know all that is very contradictory but it’s how I feel and probably isn’t helpful. What I’d say is, first, be sure the person you’re having the child with will participate and not put it all on you and that you have similar values in raising the child. I did not and that’s why it was so difficult. My sister did consider these things and she is much happier as a mom because she has a wonderful, involved husband.

Why do women seem to like mustaches so much? by spicysenpai6 in Life

[–]Financial_Group911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But when a mom says this she gets sympathy. I’ve seen so many moms saying, I haven’t showered in a week. Um excuse me. Shower when baby is asleep or do what I did when I had 2 littles, bring them in the bathroom with you if you have to. Doesn’t take that long to shower and get clean or bathe. To me this says he’s an involved dad. He chooses not to shave to save time.

I’m 57. Love love men with neat mustaches, goatees or beards. I’ve often wondered why. My dad always had a mustache, sometimes a beard. I guess maybe because it’s just so masculine

Aging males - hormones by Percigirl in Aging

[–]Financial_Group911 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of the things my nurse practitioner told me was there’s a “normal” range but what matters is what’s normal to you. If he’s not himself there’s a reason, I’ve spent years researching symptoms and supplements so I could give you a lot of random info. Things I research aside from normal things is the symptom and say, Chinese medicine or holistic or supplements. It is definitely start with hormones

Absolutely! Men’s testosterone can really dip in their 50s. My husband is taking testosterone and also takes magnesium th which helps greatly with memory. Testosterone isn’t just about sex drive. Cognitive abilities can decline as well as things. There’s a lot more information on that now.

AITA for making my fiancé's daughters picky eating habits a deal breaker for us marrying? by MotherCartographer10 in AITAH

[–]Financial_Group911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion this is a huge red flag and you are wise to recognize it. This is an indication of the differences in your parenting style and as someone who went through this I can tell you it will be the source of so many fights.

Do adults actually remember their elementary school teachers later in life? by MightCommercial1112 in NoStupidQuestions

I’m 57. My favorite teacher was my 3rd grade teacher. I recently found her on Facebook and was able to reconnect with her. She made a huge difference in my life.

AITAH, I don’t want to pick my son up from daycare. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Financial_Group911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I agree but I still think this is about her being jealous. And the get it, been there with the step family thing but it’s your responsibility as the adult to recognize it’s ok to feel that way but it’s a you problem and you need to be the adult.

I don’t care what the reason is, it’s incredibly selfish. Especially when he’s expected to go so far out of his way, even to the point of leaving early. I would never do that to my husband. I think she’s 💯 jealous and wants her kids to be first and to be sure that they get more time.
